Will be an astonishing game of football.
Can't wait.
50/50.
Two awesome teams.
I am going for the Dees, although I would also be happy if Adam Treloar kicks the decider for the Bulldogs. _________________ Free Julian Assange!!

For the first time ever, I'll be delighted for whoever wins and bitterly disappointed for the losers.
It's a shame that one team will lose, as there are many great stories surrounding each team and very deserving players, coaches and supporters for both clubs. |

I feel your pain...living with bulldog diehards, life must be hard right now.
Maybe, in order to create maximum confusion, go for the dogs in the GF (while secretly hoping for a Dees victory). If the Dogs win, then you will not cop too much flak. If the Dees win, then you can just laugh. _________________ Free Julian Assange!!

^ Get your priorities right. What is more important?? Faking an orgasm?? Or covering your ass in a GF showdown where you have nothing to gain and everything to lose???
Totally deflate them by pretending you hope for a Dogs victory.
Either way, you win.
Dogs win: hey, happy for you. (You will be surprised how this will actually disappoint them. They were hoping you would be sad and bitter!!0
Dees win: uncover your hand. "Hey, what happened?? Not good enough when it counted!" etc etc. TBH, I would love to be in your position. No emotional attachment either way who wins. You can be in control. _________________ Free Julian Assange!!

I have friends who are Melbourne supporters, go to games and I can have decent conversation about football with them. I will be happy for them if Melbourne wins.
I know Bailey Smith and despite the horrid haircut he is a great kid so will be happy for him if Bulldogs win. _________________ If you are foolish enough to be contented, don't show it, but just grumble with the rest. - Jerome K Jerome |

Melbourne $1.64
Dogs $2.25
Since 1980, the Dogs lead the ledger 38-32.
They're 1 win each this season. The Dogs winning the last meeting by 20 points at the G in July. Melbourne winning in round 11 by 28 points.
Interestingly, Treloar is yet to play a game against Melbourne in a Bulldogs jumper.
He last played against Melbourne in 2019 and seems to enjoy the match up!
Collecting an average of 32.5 disposals against the red & blue.
In 2018, he played against them once, for another 32 possessions.
Melbourne, with the extra weeks rest and a nice period in Perth should win... but, you can't ignore the way the Dogs destroyed red hot favourites Port on their home ground.
I think this is going to be one of the really great grand finals that will go down to the wire.
I'm putting a few bucks on the Dogs and might just have a redback on Treloar to win the Norm Smith. _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count. |

You can be in control. | hate is an emotion, I am very emotionally attached! This morning I got out the bulldog thing my FIL made, it’s out of cement sheet and tiles, he made me a magpie one. I stuck it on the balcony, and then hubby started with the Treloar shit. I said don’t push me. He said hey, it was your idea, and I said yes, that’s me being the bigger person, so enjoy your shit and don’t mention my team. Aside from the rest of the family being feral, his sister swapped 2 years ago from Collingwood to welfare, and had the gall to take a few digs at me this season, all the while asking if she can got to THE holiday house! It’s not THE it’s $$%^%%$ ours! As for hubby, he didn’t watch 2016, never has, I watched and came upstairs with 5 min remaining and said do you want to see your $$%^%%$ team win or what? So he cried through the last 5 min, and then wondered why I didn’t hang around for the trophies. Me “do you see anyone in black and white getting one.” I bought him the DVD the day it came out, he has never watched it, he hates footy! He never watches any games! He didn’t watch last night even though I came up at 3/4 time and said watch it. And yet this morning he starts on me! I get your point one hundred percent, but none of them care about me enough for it to deflate them!
Thing is, I can enjoy our wins all on my own, I don’t need any $%$er to be happy for me, I’m happy enough for the whole $$%^%%$ world, and I sure as shit have never rammed anything down an opposition fans throat when they are down. Because I am not a cnut! And I’ll be $%$ed if anyone is going to do it to me! I’m too old to put up with it!
I’m actually happy to be in lockdown! No panties! _________________ You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either! |

If Treloar has that sort of game and wins the GF, we'll need to do a welfare check on Pies4Shaw, for sure |

I just want a close interesting game, can't stand the toffs and Lord dribblesnot crew so will be barracking for Bullflogs (not that I particularly like them), which means it will be a Dreamons premiership as the team I want to win the grand final invariably loses! _________________ "Hey Ma get off the dang roof!" |
